Manchester City striker Erling Haaland could be named Premier League player of the season for a second consecutive year.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old Norway international has been nominated for the award alongside City team-mate Phil Foden.<\/p>\n

Arsenal midfielders Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice, Chelsea forward Cole Palmer, Newcastle striker Alexander Isak, Aston Villa forward Ollie Watkins and Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk complete the shortlist.<\/p>\n

The winner, decided by a public vote and a Premier League panel, will be announced on 18 May.<\/p>\n

City boss Pep Guardiola, a four-time winner of the manager of the season award, has again been shortlisted, alongside Arsenal\u2019s Mikel Arteta, Liverpool\u2019s Jurgen Klopp, Villa\u2019s Unai Emery and Bournemouth\u2019s Andoni Iraola.<\/p>\n

Former Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo is the only player to win the award in consecutive seasons, in 2006-07 and 2007-08.<\/p>\n

This month England forward Foden was named\u00a0footballer of the year\u00a0by the Football Writers\u2019 Association. He has scored 16 league goals and provided eight assists this season.<\/p>\n

A City player has won the award in each of the past four seasons, with Haaland\u2019s success coming after Kevin de Bruyne in 2019-20 and 2021-22 and Ruben Dias in 2020-21.<\/p>\n
